Steel Material Properties
The following values of Modulus of Elasticity, E, and Shear Modulus of Elasticity, G, for steel are used by the program.
Poisson's ratio, μ = 0.3
AISC (All Codes)
- Modulus of Elasticity E = 29,000 ksi
- Shear Modulus of Elasticity G = E/2.6 (C-Beam™ uses G = 11,600 ksi)
CAN/CSA S16
- Modulus of Elasticity E = 200,000 Mpa
- Shear Modulus of Elasticity G = 80,000 Mpa
- Shear Modulus of Elasticity G = 76,923 Mpa
AS 4100 AS/NZS 1170.1 and AS 2327.1
- Modulus of Elasticity E = 200,000 Mpa
- Shear Modulus of Elasticity G = 80,000 Mpa
- Shear Modulus of Elasticity G = 76,923 Mpa
